Moved: Council President Gleason, Seconded: Commissioner Morton
On the question: Commissioner Morton- remind me?
Response: Mayor Patterson-Howard- this is funding two positions. The Clerk will serve as
administrative person to help do the administrative paperwork involving inspections, most that
have not been done in over fifteen years. Multifamily and vacant dwellings.
Council President Gleason-amount accurate?
Deputy Commissioner Hamilton -yes
Commissioner Morton - removing code enforcement officer, don’t we need one?
Mayor Patterson-Howard- yes, but we desperately need a clerk. Dept of state is requiring us to
do these building and fire inspections and it is time sensitive or else the County will take over
and Mount Vernon won’t have a building department.
Commissioner Morton- this is wrong legislation because there’s no need to transfer funds. Cause
it is the same budget. It needs to have a request to defund or decrease the position to fund
another. Then there needs to be a salary resolution. We have to do a special BOE for the salary
resolution.
